After entering my 12 word pass-code i keep getting this message “No counter party servers are currently available. Please try again later. ERROR: The server is not fully caught up to the blockchain. Please logout and try later. (Most likely this message is due to the server being updated.” Any idea how to fix it?

Try using an alternative wallet from www.counterparty.io/wallets/ . I would suggest using freewallet.io desktop wallet as it is open source and supports the most up to date features of Counterparty. Counterwallet is old and outdated and in most cases no longer works, or only works after a long delay.
